Domestic Crises in Pakistan

We explore how Pakistan is confronting simultaneous crises, and how they are likely to affect Washington's interests in the region.

Pakistan is confronting two major crises -- one humanitarian, the other partisan. The strategic Swat Valley, along the Afghanistan border, is enduring catastrophic floods. And the country's biggest city is recovering from a wave of political violence that has left dozens dead. We explore how these tests are likely to affect Washington's interests in Pakistan.
